45 years now fall has meant getting a deer/moose/sheep/bear etc to me. Hard hunts sometimes weeks long. Cutting up and hauling out 100s of lbs of meat.
Kicking back this year no big game. Just wing shooting grouse. woodcock, and ptarmigan. Show up at my hunting grounds at 8am or 9 or so. Not at all if it's raining. Day pack with Gatorade and slim jims for a rest. No pressure to produce [get one this year?]
Pluck my birds on the spot. Make a fire enjoy the pure joy of being in the woods in fall.
I guess what I'm saying is sometimes the simplest hunts can be the best
